Angry Birds Rio for Android will be an Amazon Appstore Exclusive

Amazon is “winning”! If you Android user who was planning on purchasing Angry Birds Rio it will ONLY be available via the Amazon AppStore, not the Android Marketplace. The Amazon AppStore hasn’t opened for business yet, but since Angry Birds Rio comes out on March, 22nd, I would only assume the AppStore will open a week or so before.

Thanks to RLZIII for pointing out that, “Rovio has said that Angry Birds Rio for Android will not be only available on the Amazon Appstore. Shortly after launch, there will be an ad-supported version on the Android Marketplace. And also, after Amazon’s exclusive contract is up (a yet-to-be announced time period), the paid version will also hit other appstores.”

Rovio has said that Angry Birds Rio for Android will not be only available on the Amazon Appstore. Shortly after launch, there will be an ad-supported version on the Android Marketplace. And also, after Amazon’s exclusive contract is up (a yet-to-be announced time period), the paid version will also hit other appstores.

The angry birds Facebook page and the Amazon app store both say it will only be available from Amazon for Android. Aside from my petty satisfaction of finally getting something before the iOS, I am worried about how many bugs will come with an outside platform provider. It’s also going to be a shot wait for all the other platform users according to what I read.

Got Angry Birds Rio tonight from the Amazon App Store by downloading that to my Droid X. It was FREE because Amazon is giving one paid app a day for their launch!!! I love this site…thanks for saving my sanity on some tough levels and helping me find golden eggs. :)
